The Fugoro Challenge is live, and the Black Wisp returns! Let’s talk a bit about current balance, the upcoming end of the season, Monthly Cup, and ESL.
##Fugoro Challenge
Defeat Fugoro and have a chance to win prizes from Alienware and Razer, not to mention the elusive Black Wisp!
##Eyes on the meta
With this week’s big patch still warm off the presses, we’re continuing to keep a close eye on the evolution of the new constructed meta game. It’s a new environment that still has yet to be fully explored, and we consider ourselves to be in a “reactive mode” at this time as far as balance changes are concerned. We don’t want to act unless we spot something emerge that is very disruptive to the health of the game, as we felt was necessary yesterday. We also released another patch today with some bug fixes and other changes. That stubborn Tiki Piper just won’t let go of his extra forest. That said, there will be no more balance changes before the tournaments this weekend. If we deem any are necessary, they will be done early next week.
In the meantime, we’re really enjoying the results of the patch! Games in general seem to have a lot more tension, with each turn packed with plenty of action. It’s like the Wild West out there. Keep giving us your feedback, we’re always listening.

The following players will be competing for $400 in prizes, in alphabetical order:

If you’re familiar with competitive Faeria, you should recognize a lot of those names. We’re very excited to see what these excellent players can do with the latest changes.
Okay, I’m done. Have a great weekend!
